Fuel Pump Relay

Fig. 19 Power Distribution Center (PDC):






PURPOSE
The fuel pump relay supplies battery voltage to the fuel pump.


OPERATION
A buss bar in the Power Distribution Center (PDC) supplies voltage to the solenoid side and contact side of the relay. The fuel pump relay power circuit contains a 20 amp fuse between the buss bar in the PDC and the relay. The fuse also protects the power circuit for the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay The fuse is located in the PDC.

The PCM controls the fuel pump relay by switching the ground path for the solenoid side of the relay on and off.
- The PCM turns the ground path OFF when the ignition switch is in the OFF position.
- When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the PCM energizes the fuel pump.
- If the crankshaft position sensor does not detect engine rotation, the PCM de-energizes the relay after approximately one second.

The fuel pump relay is located in the PDC (Fig. 19). The inside top of the PDC cover has a label showing relay and fuse location.
